Hi Mike!
I’m not sure if that is how you want it, but I’ve quickly changed the input background color from white to transparent on the Theme Options -> Input field layout panel (Search input field background gradient option). It should appear as a transparent magnifier on the front page now.
Also, I’ve turned off the settings icon on the Frontend Search settings -> General panel: https://i.imgur.com/B9iLDSM.png
Best,
